We lost another person to M.E. today. From Twitter:

From Thomas Henry Anderson

My cousin Ian Rudd died this morning. Paramedics unable to resuscitate him. He was 40. He had M.E. since 1995, severe and bedridden since 2000 (after he initially tried to push himself) He was unfailingly positive and kind when able to communicate, despite extreme illness.
